[QUOTE="gendong, post: 755031, member: 22402"] yes, relatively its higher maintenance as its an inline-6 compared to 4-cyl (approx 20-30% extra). my feedback is based on the N55 engine, although mine is an F10 with the engine. 1. gasket leaking? not a primary issue. my 9 year old ride does not have this issue. so far, minor leak fm the flywheel gasket (just recently, hvnt had the time to change it yet). cheap part, but labour intensive. 2. not related to the engine. perhaps an issue with the thermostat. 3. for inline 6, expect to spend approx RM400-600 for an oil change (using more oil maaa...), depending on the brand of engine oil u use. AFT approx rm700-1000 (also depending on the quantity u use) Look up for my post in the F10 maintenance section for an idea of the cost. [/QUOTE]
